Cyrus Tanlis was born of middle class parents in a corporate state, a
heavily populated asteroid world with a spun habitat producing 0.6G. It was
into an environment of corporate wheeler-dealing that Cyrus was raised.

In this environment Cyrus thrived, winning a prestigious corporate
scholarship to the University. From the day he graduated he devoted his life
to "his" corporation and swiftly moved up through the ranks.

After eight years learning the ropes in various managerial positions, the
corporation transferred him to their "Diplomatic" division and he was posted
to Earth, eventually becoming the corporation's chief "ambassador" to Earth.

It was then that his troubles began. As a result of a somewhat dodgy deal
carried out by a subsidiary, accusations of graft were made against Cyrus
and he was recalled. The allegations were found to be untrue, but the damage
had been done, and after being employed his entire working life by the
corporation, he was dismissed.

As a consequence Cyrus Tanlis has a deep seated resentment against the
corporation he formerly thought of as his family, but has a hatred against
the people, he has yet to establish who, who destroyed his reputation.

Cyrus himself is a tall lightly built man with greying hair. He appears
to have a gambling and alcohol problem. In actuality this is an act and he
is actually searching for the people who destroyed his career. Vengeance is
what motivates him.
